Presented by the Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA), this year's celebrations marked a special milestone, as the countdown was part of the islandwide ONE Countdown celebrations commemorating Singapore's 60th birthday (SG60). In the hour leading up to the new year, the fireworks unfolded in four chapters and illuminated the iconic Marina Bay skyline with vibrant bursts of colours across the night sky.
MBSC 2025 punctuated the ringing in of the New Year at midnight with the debut of specially curated orchid motifs, designed by the team behind STAR ISLAND. Festivities had earlier begun in the lead up to the new year, with magical experiences at illumi - where visitors were dazzled by nine uniquely themed worlds with larger-than-life light sculptures and immersive multimedia, and were treated to a special New Year's Eve experience that invited them to picnic under the stars - along with captivating live performances at Esplanade – Theatres on the Bay's Come Together, which showcased an engaging lineup of homegrown musicians. Visitors also gathered.
